I Am Santa Claus -- Accordions Anonymous 2000

Nolan Chase (then 11 years old) sings Bob River's spoof. Several years ago, AA played an office party at the now defunct Wild Duck nightclub, where Don Haugen of Holy Rodent requested Black Sabbath's Iron Man. Sharon was able to pick out the melody riff on her accordion, and TubaBud recalled this holiday remake of the heavy metal classic. His son Nolan was familiar with the tune from hearing it around the house, and was recruited to front the band for this number. Unfortunately, his older brother teased him unmercifully about it, and we never recaptured the "magic" of this performance at the Holiday Market in December, 2000. Videography by Rob Tobias, videotape transfer to digital format by Sean at the Center for Media and Educational Technology.
